Alphonse Thomann branded an elephant, not to be confused with the Jean Thomann brand whose emblem was a monkey! A constant for both brands is the colour: orange.
Thomann has sponsored many corridors, such as in 1912. A team of five corridors at the start of the Tour and a yellow jersey in the 1925 Tour.
It should be added that Alphonse Thomann was the inventor of “invisible joint” autogenous welding, welding of two or more parts of the same material without the use of joints.
Alphonse Thomann was also a skilled merchant who, after selling his brand to Edmond Gentil, recreated one in his name.
They raced a Thimann George Speicher to Nicolas Frantz.
The bike presented is in a good state of conservation with a beautiful patina. Original in all its parts, it has been restored in a conservative way, completely disassembled, all the components cleaned and regreased. It has the typical structure of the bikes of the period, with a very long frame and inclined fork. Seamless brazed frame, a characteristic of the Thomann brand. Fitted with band brakes, hubs with greaser, leather saddle. Note the rims decorated in yellowish suggest his participation in the Tour de France. Thomann crankset.
The bike has been conservatively restored, completely overhauled and is ready to ride.
